I must say, dear readers…this was a very interesting interview to conduct. After researching and learning about Kenner…I came out of it all with my questions in hand, but also left with two stunning impressions of how this band operated. The first…after watching numerous videos in their catalog…was that this band has an extreme sense […]Read More
SBS Interviews go beyond the music and into the minds of the artists/bands that create it. From researching our interviewees, relentlessly mining for details and listening to everything we can, our interviews are designed to bring-out the best answers possible through thought-provoking questions that have real substance.
By now we can assume if you’ve been following our work here from sleepingbagstudios, that you’re well-familiar with the name West My Friend and the sounds of their beautiful indie-folk music. We’ve had the extreme pleasure of getting to know this incredibly talented band of four from Vancouver Island over these past two years and you […]Read More
Courage is actually a supremely rare trait to HEAR in music. Not only is the audible-quality that makes up that feeling hard to find – but to be able to discuss the tougher events with these incredible lyricists and storytellers can prove to be even more difficult even in the most comfortable situations. That’s not the […]Read More

Sometimes, in the process and pursuit of the art we love we can let people down, even let ourselves down at times. But we bounce back, if only to a more realistic vision of ourselves and our […]Read More
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good SPRIGHT! Let’s face it – Christmas music isn’t always “all that.” There are often too many bells and certainly not enough ROCK. You might even argue that over time the holiday season itself has become more about presents than it has been about presence…so let’s change that up […]Read More
People sure can RULE in a completely awesome way sometimes. Meeting humble independent musicians like Ben here from the project Ahimsa really shows you can make quality music and never have to have an ego about it. It also makes me wish for them all to retain their independent inherit goodness and never “grow-up” into the cold […]Read More
